I made this birthday card using a layer of blue card stock, a layer of glossy blue card stock and a layer of embossed, floral card stock.
I did the embossing using the Cuttlebug Embossing Folder, D’vine Swirls and the Sizzix 655268 Big Shot Cutting-and-Embossing Roller-Style Machine
.
The green flower and stamens is a product purchased from the craft store. I added ribbon tied in a bow and stamped Happy Birthday on the bottom using a rubber stamp from Hero Arts.
I really think the embossing is a great touch to card making. It turns a simple card into something quite lovely — and what a time saver that can be if you are as busy as many of us are.
This birthday card was made for my friend’s mom on her 92 birthday.
